Related: About this forumOooh Do we get to talk about Roger Clinton? Or how about Hillary's brothers?
Chuck Todd AND Eric Boehlert (MMA) want to go after Bernie's brother -so I guess brothers are fair game this election cycle!!
Oh goody!!
Roger- making money off of the tragedy in Haiti....
I paid Roger $100,000, Mr. Coleman said. Basically, he promised to get us a contract through the Clinton Foundation for a project over there. What he was really trying to do was sell the influence of his brother
Roger is not the only member of the Clinton extended family to have attracted unwanted attention: Mrs. Clintons brothers, Tony and Hugh Rodham, also surfaced in various attempts to obtain pardons from the Clinton White House and, in the case of Tony, an unsuccessful bid for his own housing deal in Haiti through the Clinton Foundation.
Representatives of the Clintons declined to answer written questions for this article. Lanny Davis, a special counsel in the Clinton White House who sometimes speaks for the family, issued a statement saying the brothers live their own lives and expressing hope that their desire for privacy is understood by both the Republicans and the media.

And from the 2008 primary time period:
Owe, brother!
Hillary Rodham Clintons youngest sibling is a deadbeat dad who owes tens of thousands of dollars in child support to his politically connected ex, The Post has learned. n a disclosure that could prove embarrassing for his sister, Anthony Rodham has stiffed his former wife, Nicole Boxer, out of $75,000 in child support, as well as $55,000 in alimony, a source close to the case said. Including interest and various fees and expenses, the presidential candidates brother now owes Boxer the daughter of Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) more than $158,000, the source said.
The revelation that Rodham is delinquent with his payments wont be a welcome development for Hillary Clinton, coming as the too-close-to-call battle for the Democratic presidential nomination reaches a fevered pitch and with the first votes to be cast in Iowa in exactly two weeks. Barbara Boxer has not endorsed a candidate in the race.
Nicole Boxer received judgments from a Washington judge ordering Rodham to pay up earlier this year, but the cash-strapped business consultant has yet to fork over the hefty sums. He has consistently been a deadbeat dad when it comes to paying child support and spousal support, despite the courts telling him over and over again that he must meet his obligations, a source close to Nicole Boxer said.
